I have been asked to do a test build
of TPTP 4.1 against Eclipse SDK 3.2 and EMF 2.2 to see which APIs are broken
by the dependency change, and report to the PMC. I have done the
build, and found only 1 plugin failed in the build. The plugin is
org.eclipse.hyades.trace.ui. The owners have been notified.
The next steps in the plan of migrating
to use Eclipse 3.2 and EMF 2.2 are:
- When the eclipse 3.2 M3 SDK and EMF
2.2 that is built on Eclipse 3.2 M3 are both available, I will do branch
the head of TPTP CVS to the TPTP_4_1_0 branch. The expected date
for this to happen is Nov 7. Note that this date is one week before
TPTP 4.1.0 GAs.
- After the branch, all code changes
to TPTP 4.1.0 must be checked into both the TPTP_4_1_0 branch and the HEAD
branch. Since the time will be so close to GA, the number of changes
is expected to be small.
- The HEAD branch will be built against
eclipse 3.2 and the TPTP_4_1_0 branch will be built against eclipse 3.1.
The HEAD branch can be considered as "TPTP 4.1.0 built on eclipse
3.2". (It's not 4.2 yet.) The HEAD branch and the TPTP_4_1_0
branches should be identical except for the fix for the compilation errors
identified in today's test build.
- The official download for TPTP 4.1.0
from eclipse will be built on Eclipse 3.1 SDK.
